has the arab spring been good for the united states? >> well, yes, it has -- >> i have to stop you there. here is hillary clinton. >> yesterday our post in libya was attacked. heavily armed militants attacked the compound and set fire to the buildings. american and libyan security personnel battled the attackers together. four americans were killed. they included sean smith, a foreign service information management officer, and our ambassador to libya, chris stevens. we are still making next of kin notifications for the other two individuals. this is an attack that should shock the conscience of people of all faiths around the world. we condemn in the strongest terms this senseless act of violence and we send our prayers to the families, friends and colleagues of those we've lost. all over the world every day americans risk our lives in the service of our countries and values. because they believe that the united states must be a force for peace and progress in the world. that these aspirations are worth striving and sacrificing for. al

"the washington post" debunked those claims last year. quote, in none of these cases does obama actually use a word at all similar to apologize. the post says, quote, note to gop speechwriters and campaign ad makers the apology tour never happened. mitt romney was never one to let good talking points get in the way but still he should offer an apology of his own. joining me now is crystal ball, co-host of "the cycle" here on msnbc and joe madison. thanks to both of you for being here tonight. >> thanks, reverend. >> so crystal, why is romney using these false apologizing attacks on the president? >> well, in the words of his pollster, they are not going to allow themselves to be dictated by fact checkers and clearly they have lived that mantra throughout the campaign. this is the same guy who has placed a lot of emphasis through ad dollars and in his speeches on a welfare attack on the president which is also wholly untrue and i also think, as you correctly pointed out, he's been push
